Diana and Fernando knew the Acqualina Resort in Florida would be the perfect place to have their destination wedding on the beach. We were thrilled when they enlisted 84 West Events as their planner and are happy to see their wedding day featured on Grace Ormonde.
Just as planned, a wedding ceremony was held on the beach, featuring a chuppah decorated with crystals and veils. As a special touch, their dog served as the ring bearer, dressed in a tuxedo! Fernando made his vows in Spanish, Diana recited hers in Portuguese, and they also had a sand ceremony with a speech to honor their mothers. The following cocktail hour was set up by the main pool at the Acqualina, where guests signed little hearts that were placed on a frame as the newlyweds’ guest book.
For the wedding décor, a vibrant reception space was designed with a color palette of gold, purple, lilac, and pink magenta. Bistro lighting provided a warm ambiance, and hanging glass globes with orchids provided a whimsical touch. The night concluded with a festive lighting of sparklers.
